William Witt (born September 5, 1996) is an American author, media personality, political commentator, producer and pundit.

Early life

[edit]

Witt was born on September 5, 1996 in Denver, Colorado,[1] and grew up in a "relatively liberal home". He attended the University of Colorado Boulder but did not receive a degree because he believes universities are indoctrinating students into left-wing politics.[2]

Career

[edit]

In 2010, Witt became PragerU's first-in-house personality, hosting the shows Man on the Street and Will Witt Live from 2018 until 2022.[citation needed] He left PragerU in 2022 to "to start a new media publication that will be the true and conservative voice for Florida."[3] Witt was[when?] frequently featured on media outlets such as Fox News, The Daily Wire and The Blaze as a cultural commentator.[citation needed]

Witt published his debut book, How to Win Friends and Influence Enemies, with Hachette Nashville in 2021. He released his second book with the publisher, Do Not Comply, in 2023.

Personal life

[edit]
