Can I use Coaxial cable as ground?

[isda]

Hi,

My home was built in the 20's and the electrical has yet to be upgraded, none of the plugs have ground wires. I just bought a nice television set and I was wondering, since it is plugged into the coaxial cable tv, does this mean the tv is grounded even though the electrical plug is not grounded? I'm trying to avoid running a new ground wire for the plug that the tv is plugged into.

Thanks

I'll go farther.

NO

That said, most TVs don't require a ground. Does your TV have a three-prong plug?
