You could major in Communications, possibly with a minor in Journalism. It really depends on the employer you would be working for, so check around before making any final decisions.

That’s my two cents, but honestly I don’t know, so please don’t make any career / life decisions based on what I think.

Not really! Your written and spoken expression should be really good, communication skills strong and spontaneous, and general awareness really good!
