Dina Lee Almeida says that three years ago, the CEO of a TV distribution firm for which she produced shows grabbed her and propositioned her for sex. As he became more aggressive, she complained to the company’s lawyer. Nothing happened. Later, she says, the CEO pressured her to sign what amounted to a confidentiality agreement.

“I absolutely refused; I would never, ever sign that,” Almeida says.

After that, the West Palm Beach, Fla., company, Olympusat, terminated her contract.
