Yelp Accused of Hiding Positive Reviews for Non-Advertiser

A good observation that someone at Yelp! probably missed. Nice catch.

I personally hate this sort of anonymous group think thing where's there is no way to get a human to look into dumb processes and policies. YouTube seems to be in a similar place with copyright claims. No way to get a human to look into obvious failings of automated (or dumb manual) policy enforcement.

  there is no way to get a human to look into...

Yelp's Talk forums in many cities have been bombarded with spam postings for fake toll-free support numbers for numerous brands. They persist for days in many cases. There seems to be little staff supervision of their site contents as a whole.
