Check out this site for the state of Kentucky and how much they use recycled newspapers.
the only thing i could find was from 2004, so i'm hoping it has increased in the last 3 1/2 years ...

The average amount of recycled fiber in the newsprint used by U.S. newspapers and other newsprint consumers increased from 10 percent in 1989 to more than 30 percent today. Market forces have also recycled newspapers into cereal boxes, egg cartons, pencil barrels, grocery bags, cellulose insulation materials, tissue paper and many more diverse products.

For the rest of the article, see link below.
Not NEARLY enough. :(
It depends on the newspaper. Some newspapers will tell you on the front if they are recyled or not.
Only the Bull and the Lies-no, that`s "newsprint"!

10 to 30 percent.
Living in Connecticut, I was told by someone involved with the handling of recycling that there is an over abundance of newspapers to be recycled. Until further notice, they are being buried in landfills.
Yes I believe so !
