Did you check the audio setting on your TV and/or cable/satellite box?  It sounds like you may have been set for the SAP audio rather than the main audio.  Of course if you we're watching via cable or satellite the problem could have been on their end.

I figured that it would be caught and fixed by the first commercial break, but nope.  They just kept going on like nothing at all was wrong.  In this day and age of downsizing, is this what things have come to, where nobody in the building is even paying attention to their over the air signal anymore?  Now I understand that the Albany/Schenectady/Troy market is much smaller than New York City or Boston, but I can't help but think that something like this happening here without any attempt to address it would've been unthinkable in the very recent past.
