4. BBC
As the national broadcaster of the United Kingdom, the British Broadcasting Corporation or BBC has garnered a high reputation for its journalistic integrity and standards since its creation was established under a royal charter and they went live for the first time from the factory of Marconi’s Wireless Telegraph Company in Chelmsford, England, in June 1920.
Over the intervening years, the BBC has been widely seen as the global standard bearer for excellence in broadcast radio and TV journalism. It has grown into the largest news gathering operation in the world with 50 foreign news bureaus with more than 250 correspondents around the world. Although it is required by the royal charter that created it to be free from both political and commercial influence, many American viewers see it as left leaning. However, since the BBC News department was founded 99 years ago on 14 November 1922, it has had its lofty reputation for a good reason.
