Only three days earlier, the man with the golden voice had been panhandling along an Ohio highway, bearing a ragged cardboard sign that touted his “God-given” gift.
Millions of YouTube views, many job offers and one hastily arranged plane flight later, Ted Williams was opening Thursday’s TODAY show in New York, displaying the mellifluous vocal talent that had taken him to a major career in radio before drugs and alcohol dragged him down into a life of petty crime and living in shelters. Then a chance meeting with a local reporter made him an overnight sensation.

It's nice in this day and age of trash news and gotcha reporting to see a real human interest story like this make headlines.

Trash news, for sure. But come on, "gotcha" reporting? That was invented by Palin to try to get away with not knowing things she should know.

It's kinda like not studying for a test and then blaming the teacher for questions you don't know.
