(C)ommunication (A)rts, (S)peech, & (T)heater
Explanation:
TV Production, Journalism, and Web Publishing, Art, Mass media, Multimedia Advertising are all subjects that fit under the unbrella of "Communication Arts" which is what hit me when I saw this question.

I'll admit, I required the help of google to figure out the S & T, but I'm pretty sure of this... like 100% sure.
