SALT LAKE CITY — Dick Nourse, who delivered the news to generations of Utahns as the lead anchor at KSL-TV for 43 years, has died.
Nourse’s death was reported by KSL on Thursday. He was 83. No cause of death was mentioned, though the station said Nourse was a three-time cancer survivor.
Nourse appeared on his first newscast at KSL-Channel 5 in 1964 and retired in 2007.
Driving from Colorado in 1964 in “a brand-new ‘63 Corvair,” he told co-anchor Bruce Lindsey during a 2007 retirement tribute on KSL, Nourse parked on Social Hall Avenue, where Salt Lake City’s three TV stations had their offices at the time.
