It's puppy fur. Or he's just growing in a winter coat. He's fine.
Dogs that have a longer coat need to have the hair in their ears pulled in some cases. It can cause ear infections, and collect buildup that will make his ears reek. Be quick when you pull it out and he should be ok, but if he is sensitive to it you may want to do it in a few different sessions.
Newfoundland dogs are meant for colder weather, and the hair is there for protection from the harsh elements so you may want to let it be if it isn't causeing your dog any problems.
You can also take your dog to a groomer, and they can take care of it for you!
I wish I had a a landseer.
