Former 'Enquirer' editor Dylan Howard has been a key player in the era's most sordid scandals. Now, he is in the midst of repositioning himself as an Hollywood industry player
National Enquirer Investigates, as does Discovery Communications, which has broadcast AMI productions about Cosby on Investigation Discovery and Princess Diana on TLC. Asked about the alliance, Reelz stands by AMI and Howard, describing them as "a tremendous and reliable programming supplier and partner" since 2016 who "deliver compelling programs and specials on time and on budget." Discovery didn't return a request for comment.
Endeavor CEO Ari Emanuel has been close to Pecker for at least three decades, dating to when Emanuel, then at ICM, represented Hachette Filipacchi, where Pecker was CEO. An individual with direct knowledge of the practice says that Emanuel's relationship with Pecker has, over the years, yielded a meaningful benefit: AMI has purchased damaging footage of major Endeavor clients or their loved ones to take it off the market before it could be exposed in the media.
In addition to his C-suite role at AMI, Howard also is senior vp of subsidiary Broad + Water Studios, where he oversees strategy for its output of documentaries. In November, he was outed byfor proposing to secretly pay $1 million to R. Kelly to participate in a TV docuseries that he was hoping to develop about the R&B singer's underage rape allegations.
Howard's been busy in publishing as well. He's now in the midst of releasing seven quickie, co-authorized volumes through Skyhorse, a Simon & Schuster distribution partner, within the span of less than a year. Simon & Schuster wouldn't discuss its distribution of Howard's work, but Skyhorse publisher Tony Lyons backed him.
