Same here. I was able to turn on the small TV in orientation to see the news but everytime I try and turn on the TV in the first safehouse the game locks up.
The first time I tried to turn it on after talking to some guy before starting any missions. I rebooted and carried on. After I bugged the airfield and returned to the safehouse I opened the weapons chest. It said I have a new mission and to turn the TV on. Again, as soon as I hit turn on TV the game freezes up. I came online to see if anyone else was having this problem and haven't went back on AP yet. Its very frustrating!
