	FRED ROGERS: America's Favorite Neighbor For over thirty years, Fred Rogers was broadcasted daily into homes and hearts via Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. Although today he is best known as a soft-spoken, cardigan-wearing children’s television host, Fred Rogers’ career demonstrated the power of a kindness. In honor of Fred Rogers legacy, WSIU's One Region All Neighbors campaign aims to encourage community involvement and public service throughout the region.
