The online news websites compress digital images in their articles. We find that different sites often compress their images in distinctive ways, which enable source attribution via analysis of image compression settings.

Thus, the analytic attributes a news article to one of 30 news sources based on image compression statistics from a collected datasets of those news sources' articles. The analytic assumes that the news article comes from one of those 30 articles.
