Here's the kind of grounding block you want:

Specially designed for type-f connectors, provides a code compliant
compression
ground connection.

By the way - putting a grounding connection right at the TV receiver and
bonding to the
AC power ground right at the receiver also significantly reduces
interference problems because it
drastically reduces the common-mode cable impedance at the TV set.

I think that that is only partially true. Having a second ground
at the set that is not DIRECTLY connected to the power ground at
the sme set is guaranteed to create a ground loop. Some sets by
themselves can ignore this but other equipment such as home
theater stuff very frequently ends up being sensitive to it
resulting in humming througout the audio system.
