Hey look, people are finally noticing that Yelp sells review placement. They called us a few months back with the usual shakedown request. Apparently you get a call once you have more than N hits. If you pay them a monthly fee, you get to put your “favorite” review at the top, get better search result listings, and get to delete “unfair” reviews about your business.

The yelp backlash begins. While their shakedown is silly and sad, crappy reviews are a problem that all sites have.
