Headline Howie is a newspaper journalist whose talent is churning out front page headlines by means of either alliteration or rhyming (or both). The script describes the character as "sort of what Biff would be like if he had studied journalism at C.C.N.Y."[1]
He appears in Episode 0796 of Sesame Street, where his rhyming headlines about Mr. Snuffleupagus ("Snuff Stuff Just Fluff") parody the infamous Variety headline "Sticks Nix Hick Pix."
One of his headlines is alluded to as an accessory for an unproduced action figure of Oscar the Grouch.
