The main theme of hurricane Katrina was that black people in New Orleans felt like the government didn't care about them. So the producers of the Katrina telethon decided it was a good idea to have a rich white Jewish guy from NY pretend to be a black jazz musician from New Orleans. There was definitely no shortage of real black people that could tell what they really went through and probably be funnier than Billy Crystal.
