In the age of information overload and polarized discourse, understanding media bias has become imperative for informed decision-making and fostering a balanced public discourse. However, without the experts' analysis, it is hard for the readers to distinguish bias from the news articles. This paper presents IndiTag, an innovative online media bias analysis system that leverages fine-grained bias indicators to dissect and distinguish bias in digital content. IndiTag offers a novel approach by incorporating large language models, bias indicators, and vector database to detect and interpret bias automatically. Complemented by a user-friendly interface facilitating automated bias analysis for readers, IndiTag offers a comprehensive platform for in-depth bias examination. We demonstrate the efficacy and versatility of IndiTag through experiments on four datasets encompassing news articles from diverse platforms. Furthermore, we discuss potential applications of IndiTag in fostering media literacy, facilitating fact-checking initiatives, and enhancing the transparency and accountability of digital media platforms. IndiTag stands as a valuable tool in the pursuit of fostering a more informed, discerning, and inclusive public discourse in the digital age. We release an online system for end users and the source code is available at https://github.com/lylin0/IndiTag.
