BBC News is the department of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) responsible for the gathering and broadcasting of news and current affairs. The department is the world's largest broadcast news organisation and generates about 120 hours of radio and television output each day, as well as online news coverage.

History[edit]

BBC News' television news started in 1954, and its radio service dates back to 1923. The BBC's news output has evolved over the decades in line with technological advances and changes in the way audiences consume news.

Services[edit]

BBC News provides news via several outlets, including on BBC One, BBC Two, the BBC News Channel, BBC World News, and BBC Three. BBC News Online, launched in 1997, is one of the most-visited news websites in the UK. BBC News also provides radio news to BBC Radio stations and the BBC World Service, as well as to commercial radio stations in the UK.

Editorial and funding[edit]

BBC News' editorial guidelines are set by the BBC Trust. The BBC is funded by a television licence fee paid by UK households. This funding ensures the BBC's independence from commercial interests and political pressures.

Criticism and controversies[edit]

BBC News has faced criticism on several occasions, including accusations of bias, both political and cultural. Despite these controversies, BBC News remains a widely respected news organisation, both in the UK and internationally.
