They're looking for companies that are fatally flawed but present otherwise. Kind of like the Hindenburg.

Hedge funds are not usually terribly concerned with marketing image. See, for example, Cerberus Capital Management, the former owner of Chrysler, which saw fit to name itself after a three-headed dog that guards the gates of Hell.
