Well, in this case Tori's referring to another character in-universe. It's interesting to speculate, though, about how real-world audience response might affect the story's trajectory. The time lag is an important factor - the vlogs purport to be in near real-time (i.e., it was filmed on Tuesday and posted on Wednesday), but in fact they would probably be filmed weeks or even months before airing, depending on actor and crew availability and editing requirements.
