Adrian Peterson is in court to fight the child abuse charges that have landed him on the Commissioner's Exempt List, but he had another fight on his mind Wednesday morning.
Peterson took issue with the Minneapolis Star-Tribune's report on his charitable foundation, tweeting out "Journalism 101" for the newspaper.

Peterson has said previously that his foundation's financial issues that were highlighted in the report have been fixed. ESPN reported that his philanthropic advisor, Bruce Richman, had been working to clean up the All Day Foundation's finances and to get Peterson more involved with the decision-making process since 2011.
It's clear that Peterson's public image has taken a massive hit between this report and the child abuse allegations, and this may just be his attempt to do some damage control. That said, these all seem like pretty fair concerns that might be worth looking into.
