VIDEO:  Red States & Blue States: Talking with Kelly Nyks of "Split"
 
 
Kelly Nyks is a filmmaker who made the documentary "Split: A Divided America," an investigation into the blue-state/red-state divide through part road-trip and part citizen-journalism. The film proudly sells itself as an unbiased look into the current state of affairs. Kelly discusses the origins of the split, a bit about what he found out during his filming, and safe-guards they took in order to remain unbiased during the investigation. www.splitdoc.com
