When citing in APA format when an article has no author do I put the title first or the organization that it came from (for example, BBC News)??

Yes, put the title first if no author, when it comes to alphabetizing, do not include articles in the title such as "the" and "a" I hope this helps!
Edit: for BBC news, a lot of news articles are done by groups of news reporters, such as the associated press. I'm not sure where BBC gets it's articles, but if their is any credibility whatsoever in there, that is what you claim as the author!

I'm not sure about APA format, because we had to use Chicago Manual of Style, but we put title first.

APA citations use the following order:
1) Author
2) Publication date
3) Title
If you don't know the author, then you'd skip that one and start with the next part, which would be the publication date.
