Most musicologists do point it now to La Rue. Having sung much music by both composers, there is far more likenesses of La Rue's Masses and the style of polyphony in Absalon than in the collected works of Josquin (Take a listen to La Rue's 2nd Agnus Dei from L'homme Arme Mass for example). However, all debating aside, it is a great piece.
I believe it is attributed to Josquin because the printer of the only extant period print edition labelled *everything* French and/or Burgundian to Josquin.
It may be by Pierre de la Rue but musicologists are still researching this. Until anything decisive has presented, the counterpoint is similar to that of Josquin's and it is acceptable to say that it is by Josquin. @Slem1990

@Ryanoceros87 So you're saying that we should assume its by Josquin because he is more famous or what? But yes its perfectly acceptable either way...
