William Kramer
William Kramer is a Chicago-based journalist who joined Snopes in September 2025 as a reporting intern. He is a senior at Northwestern University majoring in journalism and creative writing with a minor in film and media studies. The topics he reports on are quite eclectic — from a video on the activist group the Raging Grannies to an analysis of gatekeeping for his college radio station, WNUR. His interests include collecting (and playing) as many musical instruments as possible, working on a film script that may or may not ever be finished and trying not to fall while bouldering.
