President Donald Trump said Netflix and Paramount Skydance have called him about their fight over Warner Bros. Discovery — but he says he's staying out of it.

"I've been called by both sides," Trump told "NBC Nightly News." "It's the two sides, but I've decided I shouldn't be involved. The Justice Department will handle it."

This is a shift from what Trump said in December of last year.

"They have a very big market share, and when they have Warner Bros., you know, that share goes up a lot so, I don't know," Trump said after Netflix made its bid for Warner Bros. Discover. "I'll be involved in that decision, too. But they have a very big market share."
