It's generally considered that this is a negotiating tactic by Fox TV to get the actors to lower their asking price.
I actually kind of dismissed this because Billy West was really gung ho about the movies getting off the ground back then and I figured he was genuinely in love with playing Fry and Zapp and whoever else he voices, but apparently he's walked from a handful of other shows because his quote wasn't met.
The timing's still really odd, though, considering Comic Con is this week and there's a big Futurama panel.

Did anyone like the movies? They were/are mostly awful.
(I'm still bawling over that fucking dog episode...)

Get out.
No, he's right. Titus was a dreary, moronic, unfunny show that entirely deserved to get cancelled as quickly as it did.
As for this thing with the recasting, it's obviously a salary negotiation stunt, not a publicity stunt.

ZylonBane saying something stupid! Stop the fucking presses! Titus was the only sitcom on TV worth watching since Married With Children ended.

Sitcoms these days are worthless. I tried watching some and it was like... this shit isn't funny at all. They're all shamelessly aping Friends and Seinfeld which weren't funny either.

I've gotten to the point of hating anything labeled "sitcom" - seeing absolutely no difference between any of them, save for the actors and character names - and would rather watch idiotic reality TV or cartoons for a laugh.
The last truly "funny" show I enjoyed was Studio 60 (though I haven't watched 30 Rock).

On that he's right...
on the rest he's wrong
