We employ density-functional theory to calculate realistic parameters for an extended Hubbard model of the molecular metal TTF-TCNQ. Considering both intra- and intermolecular screening in the crystal, we find that longer-range Coulomb interactions along the molecular stacks, as well as inter-stack coupling are of importance. Contrary to past belief, these terms do not lead to the formation of a Wigner lattice, but simply broaden the spectral function. We show how this can be understood already in perturbation theory. Moreover we calculate the effect of the nearest neighbor repulsion on the Luttinger parameter.
