They are funded by public subscription in the form of a licence fee which makes the BBC the most extensive and best funded public service broadcaster in the world.  Commercial news institution: Contrary to the BBC, ITV are not a public service broadcaster, it doesn't receive funding from a license fee. They get money from advertisements and charging companies a lot to have a commercial or advertisement in between shows...
