"Hey, Riot here! We're hiring a firm to choose our partners for the franchise league. BTW, if you don't choose the teams we already like, we will just go to a rival firm and hire their services instead! You get money, we get to deny accountability! Good doing business with ya."

In the reply he clarifies all he knows is that the initial list was culled down by a third party which sounds reasonable enough to me since riot wouldn't have a in house team for that since they obviously don't start franchises every week.

Idk this reasoning sounds kind of naive to me. why would they hire a firm to do that if they weren't gonna tell the public they are putting themselves are out of the process. everyone assumed it was riot who hand picked the teams anyway. For me what sounds more plausible is they hired a 3rd party to reavaluate the orgs worth based on different kinds of data riot might not have the tools to deal with, but also wanted orgs relationship with riot to be an important factor.

It has nothing to do with the public : its common for senior managers to hire a consulting firm as an insurance policy in case their project fails and they end up redlining (in this case it's franchising)
