I think the core developers sorted the issue with their replies on the reddit post.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2js78h/bitcoinorg_now_claiming_to_be_the_official_site/

A couple Foundation employees played tag team to try to smooth things over in reddit. Prior to this the education committee claimed their content was developed in a "decentralized" manner which they also agreed to change once I complained. Plus there were those times when they claimed they represent all Bitcoin users and they said they would change their tune and state they only represent their users.

In any case the latest claim here is that the info came from Google. They updated the site description but it is not changed in Google yet so it is not yet resolved even though they closed the issue.

But in fact Bitcoin is run by a small group of people IMO, that decide things like how the blockchain works. Of course they will claim it's a democracy but in fact it is not, nor should it be. The people who put the hard work in coding get to call the shots as to how bitcoin will work. Most of them post here so unofficially this is the official site. Offtopic: I am looking forward to making bitcoin more anonymous, possibly with 'automatic mixing' of coins along the lines suggested by darkcoin. I think the Powers That Be are also onto this.
