Here is the rewritten article in a neutral newsroom style:

Jimmy Kimmel has responded to calls from Donald and Melania Trump, who have urged for his firing. The incident occurred after a shooting at a concert venue in Las Vegas.

According to reports, Jimmy Kimmel made a joke about Donald Trump’s age during a taping of his late-night show. The comment was perceived as insensitive by some, leading to the calls for his termination.

Kimmel has since clarified that his joke was not intended to be a call for assassination, but rather a lighthearted remark based on Trump’s age. He has also defended himself against criticism, stating that he is “shocked” and “disappointed” by the reaction from the Trumps.

The White House has issued statements calling for Kimmel’s firing, with Melania Trump tweeting that she was “outraged” by his comments. Donald Trump has also weighed in, saying that Kimmel’s joke was “unacceptable”.

Kimmel’s team has released a statement denying that he made any threat against Trump or anyone else. The incident is ongoing, with no further updates available at this time.
