Coburn has a host of bearish ideas. He has made a bundle betting against newspaper stocks; he thinks they are "the buggy whips of the digital age," and remains short the New York Times (NYT) and others. He's also short a boatload of big, troubled tech companies -- Motorola (MOT), Palm (he and Integral disagree completely), eBay (EBAY), Alcatel-Lucent (ALU), Interpublic Group (IPG), CNET (CNET)...he's got 51.
