After the fencing competitions, the radio reporter commented “Denmark won silver, and/or Spain won gold.”

The TV reporter said “Denmark won bronze, and/or France won ...” but an ovation from the public drowned his comment.

The press reporter, showing again his good sense of hearing, managed to hear the whole sentence, and was able to deduce the final standings. What where they?

I don't think RoyCook made a type-o at all. "The press reporter must have heard" is the same as "the TV reporter must have said" since the press reporter heard what the TV reporter said.
