They could theoretically do both by having the JS on the page set one cookie on the host domain and having the server response set one on the GA domain. I don't believe they do, however.

Shameless self mention: Chartbeat does not do this either.

Wouldn't that count as a third-party cookie? It depends on whether "third party" is defined as "third party from the server response" or "third party from the domain of the loaded page".
