The BBC'S most relevant example of objectivity is in the show 'question time'.
Objectivity is the reporting of reality and facts without the input of prejudice and personal opinion. Question time allows people to ask the chosen members of the government different questions about various things, it also gives them a chance to respond. The response needs to include a valid point that has been tested against facts, this means the BBC are not providing the public with false information as you can see by the answers being backed with evidence.
Objectivity is included in the programme question time by allowing the different members of government to answer with their opinion that has been tested against facts, for example when Nick griffin was asked the question 'why would Churchill be in the BNP if he was alive now, and why did you hijack his reputation?' the response Nick Griffin gave included objectivity, because he used quotes and facts for example 'no other party would have him for what he said in the early days to mass immigration to this country, quote only coming from our benefit system, and in his younger days he was extremely critical of the dangers fundamentalist islam in a way which would now be described as islamifobic'. In that quote you can see how Nick Griffin has backed up his answer and has done his research to make the answer valid.
