Slumlord Crackdown Sort of Working

There’s often little real “news” during the holiday season, but at times that makes the newspapers more interesting since it frees up column inches for important topics that aren’t necessarily all that newsy. For example, when DC announced a big slumlord crackdown, that was “news.” But what every happened to it? Is it working? Debbie Cenziper takes a look in today’s Washington Post and comes up with the boring answer “sort of.” But sometimes the truth doesn’t make a good headline.
