Jake Green says, " I'll show you impact."
"Online impact is a factor in series planning"
" “The ability to maintain a strong online presence is now critical to getting a series picked up as well as its long-term viability,” says Jeffrey Stepakoff, author of TV memoir Billion Dollar Kiss: The Kiss That Saved Dawson’s Creek And Other Adventures in TV Writing and a former writer on Dawson’s, one of the first series to interact with fans online.
“TV shows were picked up this season specifically for how well they could be repurposed and expanded on the Internet,” he says.
“Many of these shows have entire narrative worlds which exist between episodes on television. Look at Jericho. And these shows drive huge amounts of traffic to the parent sites.”

From Variety
Myles at Cultural Learnings talks to CBS about Jericho.
It's all in the communication.
Variety has a great idea for CBS:
"Idea is to create a new batch of Internet stars (think lonelygirl15), as well as provide marketing opportunities for entertainment brands that want to be associated with young talent. (CBS, for example, might want to hype "Jericho" by offering a walk-on role on the show as a prize)."
"Foxman: CBS 'facilitating' anti-Semitism"
"CBS has taken a fifty percent ownership stake in the online talent search Big Shot. According to Variety, they are attempting to move their TV syndication model to the Internet."
"How desperate is network TV getting about the proliferation of ad-zapping DVRs? Check out this ridiculous study from NBC Universal."
"U.S. TV season could see weaker CBS - study"

"Meanwhile, CBS television is still among the ratings leaders because of stalwarts "Survivor" and the "CSI" franchise, but the network's ratings have declined in recent months. The unit had a misstep earlier in the quarter, when fans angrily reacted to its decision to pull the series "Jericho," prompting the company to reinstate the show."
