Yeah, shit like this happens all the time. Ground techs sending on the wrong transponder and/or time causing mutual interference whether due to poor training and communication or negligence. The ITU takes care of it. Probably nothing more to this unless you subscribe to the tinfoil hat apparell.

I could list about 50 or 60 incidents in the 1980s alone when I had one of those big C-band dishes and watched the news feeds etc.
I also worked for TeleSat Canada during the 1988 Winter Olympics, a couple of mistakes were made then but fortunately not during a live broadcast.
This is a bit insightful on some of the problems with Sat feeds being interfered with, both maliciously and accidentally:
