Yelp Sues Google for Giving Preference to Its Own Reviews

Online reviews company Yelp sued Google, alleging the search giant has used its power over the web to benefit its own reviews business and unfairly shut out the smaller company. Yelp, a pioneer of online reviews for local businesses, has long accused Google of anti-competitive conduct, lobbying for stricter oversight of how the giant handles searches for restaurant and business reviews.
