Related: Anti-Yelp Documentary ‘Billion Dollar Bully’ Heads To Kickstarter To Fund Production

"Kaylie Milliken is attempting to investigate Yelp's “$3.6 billion racket against small business owners" in her documentary Billion Dollar Bully. If this allegation comes as a shock, then know that Yelp has been accused of manipulating business review pages and giving preferential treatment to restaurants that pay for advertising."

Well, yeah, maybe, but if they did this regardless of sexual orientation, it should be no problem.

Thanks for that link. Once my car broke down out of town. The AAA driver recommended a gas station that did repairs. I went for it and we dropped off the car. That night I checked the place on Yelp. All negative reviews. Next day the car was fixed and I mentioned the reviews to the owner. She laughed and said the day after she told Yelp she would pay them no more, her reviews went to hell.
