Paco Lobatón

Francisco de Asís Lobatón Sánchez de Medina, better known by his stage name Paco Lobatón, is a Spanish journalist. He was the co-presenter of Supervivientes: Expedición Robinson in its second series in 2001, presenting the galas from Madrid.
Paco made his name as a journalist in Parliamentary affairs and for working on cases of missing people. He was originally exiled to Switzerland after being arrested for protesting against Franco in the early 1970s, and returned to Spain upon Franco's death in 1975.
Paco was intended to make his name in the reality TV world, after a successful career in journalism, similar to what Mercedes Milà had done with Gran Hermano the previous year, however, despite getting good ratings, Supervivientes was axed, after failing to live up to the hype created by Gran Hermano. When Antena 3 picked up the show in 2003, Paco did not jump ship and was replaced by Alfonso Caparrós.
