WPIX 11/CW NY and News 12 Long Island Status

I’m not sure where we request networks, but I have had the service since it first launched as DirecTV Now and have been wondering for years if it will ever add WPIX and New 12 Long Island to their network lineups for people living on Long Island, NY? Thanks!
