<<<….”They are hired by businesses a) to monitor all online reviews pertaining to them and b) to get rid of “bad reveiws” on, e.g., Google, Yelp, Yahoo, etc.”….>>>How do these internet reputation preservation/restoration companies “get rid of” bad reviews? They can’t really send over Moose, Rocco, and Vinny with some baseball bats to the Google and Yelp headquarters.

I believe they send lawyers threatening suit for publishing libel/slander in interference with commerce.
Many who post negative reviews for non-objective reasons or who have “hidden agendas” simply cannot resist “going over the top”. This makes it easy for the reputation defender firm to convince a site, e.g., Google or Urbanspoon, to pull the offending post.
