The "GPS" in the show's title stands for "Global Public Square," a reference to the show's focus on international issues and foreign affairs. On August 10, 2012, CNN suspended the program pending their investigation of suspected plagiarism. One week later, the New York Times reported, "Time and CNN said they had completed their reviews, found no evidence of plagiarism, and restored Mr. Zakaria to his demanding schedule." Each installment features Zakaria leading a panel discussion and conducting an extended one-on-one interview.
