Luis Francisco Ojeda (June 16, 1941) is a well-known Puerto Rican

television, radio reporter and host, noted for his aggressive,

uncompromising questioning. He spent 50 years on radio until his

retirement in 2020.Ojeda was born in Jayuya. He moved to Ponce when he

was still a youngster. While studying in high school, he got his first

opportunity to talk live in a daily show, becoming a newscaster for

Ponce's WPAB radio station.Ojeda signed a contract with WAPA in 1960,

and moved to San Juan. He worked at WAPA as newscaster (and occasional

disc jockey) until 1968, moving on that year to work for rival

WKAQ-Radio Reloj. While there, he had to cover the historic riots at

the University of Puerto Rico at Rio Piedras in 1971. In one of the

incidents covered by Ojeda a shooting ensued, and Ojeda, in the middle

of the shootout, rescued a police lieutenant who had been shot.

Despite his efforts, the police officer died from his gunshot wounds

in the back of the remote unit truck while Ojeda was broadcasting his

and his driver's frantic rush to the nearest emergency room live.Ojeda

was later offered a job as the news director and anchorman of

Telemundo Puerto Rico's television news show. He decided, however, not

to take the job, opting instead to join then governor Rafael

Hernández Colón's staff, as a member of Puerto Rico's Communications

Office. Ojeda needed to work as a journalist, however, and, by 1973,

he decided to step in front of the television cameras for the first

time, working at channel 11's news show. Not long after Ojeda joined

channel 11, the channel's owner had died and the station went

bankrupt, so Ojeda signed on with WAPA-TV to work as a field reporter

at Noticentro 4.
