Per the Online Writing Lab
http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/03/
(and the APA manual, too)

In APA in-text citation, when the author is unknown:

"If the work does not have an author, cite the source by its title in the signal phrase or use the first word or two in the parentheses. Titles of books and reports are italicized or underlined; titles of articles, chapters, and web pages are in quotation marks."
