Well, Oobleck has a History PhD, so perhaps he is seen as well educated in the backgrounds of the other kingdoms and thus unlikely to make comments that could be perceived as offensive. Also, the competitors from other Kingdoms are staying in Beacon grounds and he is a Beacon teacher. It was also my personal impression that had the Breach incident not taken place, the Festival security would have been left in Beacon's charge.

From personal experience with my own country putting any random comedian or reporter as commentator during international events: they tend to make racist or at the very least ignorant remarks as jokes.
