So here’s my advice to Mr. O’Brien: After he leaves NBC and spends a few months healing his wounds and pulling the troops back together, he should come back and make the Internet his time slot. He doesn’t need to abandon television — there are still millions of viewers who sit around the living room and tune in at a specific time — but he could take the battle in the direction the audience is clearly migrating: online. Isn't that exactly what most shows (Tonight Show included) do right now? Broadcast at a specific time to millions of people while offering up clips and other content online (and in many cases, the entire show, the following day)? For example: Last week, knowing that Conan was going to draw a larger crowd than usual, Letterman uploaded clips of his monologue to their CBS branded YouTube channel before the show aired.
