David Zaslav, president and CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery, has now sold roughly $200 million worth of stock since the media company clinched a deal to be acquired by David Ellison’s Paramount Skydance earlier this year.

Zaslav’s latest sales were of 194,999 shares of WBD worth $5,464,567.73 on Aug. 14 and 773,173 shares with a value of $21,655,292. Those were handled on his behalf by Fidelity Brokerage Services, according to a company filings with the SEC. That came after the exec sold $59.47 million of stock in July and $114 million March.
