SIOUX CITY -- Legendary Siouxland broadcast executive William F. (Bill) Turner, best known for ushering in the golden age of television news as the general manager for both KCAU and KTIV for much of 1970s and 1980s, died Tuesday in Naples, Florida, at the age of 90.

Getting his start in broadcasting as a part-time sports announcer when he was still a New Britain, Connecticut, high school student in the early days of television, Turner graduated from Morse College, in Hartford, then joined WHAY in New Britain, where he quickly rose to become station manager.
