Do not put quotations in italics. Quotation marks (or block quoting) alone are sufficient and the correct ways to denote quotations. Italics should only be used if the quoted material would otherwise call for italics. Use italics within quotations to reproduce emphasis that exists in the source material or to indicate the use of non-English words.
For titles of books, articles, poems, and so forth, use italics or quotation marks following the guidance for titles. Italics can also be added to mark up non-English terms (with the {} template), for an organism's scientific name, and to indicate a words-as-words usage.

It depends MOS:ITALICTITLE says that only websites with paper equivalents (The New York Times, Nature, etc) and "news sites with original content" should be italicized. Personally, however, I never italicize news websites that don't have paper equivalent or aren't e-magazines (BBC, CNN, etc). Brandmeister talk 10:06, 21 May 2019 (UTC)
Consulting outside sources: APA says italics. MLA says italics. Chicago says quotation marks. That seems to allow us to choose our own style; since italics has been the consensus for over ten years here on WP, we should stay with that unless there is an RFC or some other consensus discussion that determines we should do otherwise.
