NBC News is eyeing a morning home for Megyn Kelly's upcoming show that will impact the four-hour time slot now held by the "Today" show, according to two media reports.

One scenario would give Kelly the 10 a.m. slot, and move co-hosts Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb to 9 a.m., according to The New York Times and Variety. The current third hour of "Today," co-hosted by Tamron Hall and Al Roker, would be dropped.

Another would give Kelly the 9 a.m. slot and again end Hall and Roker's co-hosting chores. That move would pit Kelly against ABC's "Live with Kelly Ripa."

NBC has not decided whether Kelly's show would be part of the "Today" brand or not.

The network had considered an afternoon news program for Kelly, but dropped those plans after looking at the failures of past shows hosted by Anderson Cooper, Katie Couric, Meredith Vierra and Jane Pauley, Variety stated.

Kelly will formally join NBC in May, according to the trade paper.

Earlier this month, Kelly refused a $20 million offer to stay at FOX News and accepted an offer from NBC.

Under the terms of the NBC deal, she will anchor a new, one-hour daytime program on NBC. She will also anchor a new Sunday evening news magazine show and contribute to NBC's breaking news, political and special events coverage.

In her recently published autobiography "Settle for More," Kelly accused former FOX News honcho Roger Ailes of sexually harassing her shortly after she was hired in 2005. Ailes resigned from the network in July after former anchor Gretchen Carlson complained she was sexually harassed by him. Ailes has denied the allegations.
