I know he was not the type to protest a new neighbor, ask for money from his viewers,ever bad mouthed others not like him, he wanted to educate the viewer and not hide things from them. He felt comfortable in what he wore.He did not feel it necessary to wear modern duds,designer labels. His image did not come from what he wore. He spoke softly. There was no need to shout to get his point across. He enjoyed life and tried to make life enjoyable for his viewers.
