The full image also includes Tip O'Neill's bio, which lists him as becoming Speaker of the House in 1976. In actuality, he didn't become speaker until 1977. Looks like the fact checking on these bios was non-existent.

It said he was "named" Speaker of the House, not that he *became* Speaker of the House.  O'Neill would've been chosen as the successor to Albert in 1976 (remember, Shuler's challenge to Pelosi was in 2010).
