nielsen72 on "Avoid dmoz lookup for WordPress site"

$

Weeks after launching a new website, Google still displays an old outdated summary/snippet from DMOZ (Open Directory Project).
I have learned that by adding this metadata tag, Google is instructed not to lookup in DMOZ
<meta name="robots" content="noodp, noydir" />

Custom tags however is no option for a WordPress.com site.

Of cause I have contacted DMOZ, but the editor there has not applied the changes, or is just very slow?

Is there anything else that could be done in the WordPress setup?

Why is Google using DMOZ in the first place, and not reading the content of the site?
